Operational Guidance | OG 07-2022, Change 1 Waiver of Expenditure Requirements for Out-of-School Youth

The purpose of this guidance is to announce and provide guidelines for the local Workforce Development Boards (WDBs) to implement North Carolina’s approved waiver of the Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act (WIOA) Title I Youth 75 percent expenditure requirement for Out-of-School Youth (OSY). This change updates the expenditure level to “up to” 50 percent for In-School Youth, for those that choose to implement the waiver, updates the notification deadline for those choosing to implement the waiver, and updates the expiration date of this Operational Guidance to June 30, 2025, which is the end of the performance period for Program Year 2023 Title I funding. 

This Operational Guidance (OG) rescinds OG 07-2022 and the procedures herein supersede all previous policy, procedures, and guidelines regarding the Waiver of Expenditure Requirement for Out-of- School Youth.
